About this Item

Stark-Condé
Three Pines Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
6 (1 x 6) 750ml
This single-vineyard iconic Cabernet is based on a high elevation vineyard site (350m). The finely textured decomposed granite soil, cooler temperatures, and ample winter rainfall creates perfect growing conditions for premium Cabernet. The wine is characterized by its silky tannin structure and unique floral notes. Since its maiden vintage in 2000, this has been one of South Africa's most consistently awarded Cabernets.

Critics Ratings

'Range previously listed as 'Twin Peak.' From single vineyard, highest elevation on home-farm. Hedgerow fruit with cassis, gives wild edge, adds to individuality of 06; refined tannins accessible, reflect careful handling: unfined/filtered, as all reds. 22 months French oak, 70% new. TWS gold.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide, 4.5* (2009)

'Focused, with a graphite undertow to the black currant, black cherry and fig notes. Licorice and coffee hints frame the finish. Should open up with modest cellaring.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 90/100 (Dec 2008)

'Rather more complex than the Twin Peak. Fills the palate and is in fact lip-smackingly good! There's still a little tannin here but with food it could delight already. Should develop well too.' - Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Nov 2009)
